Glamorgan will have Australian fast bowler Shaun Tait available for the rest of the NatWest T20 Blast campaign after the Welsh county reached the quarter-finals.

Tait arrived in Wales for the second half of the T20 group games and played the final seven matches of the tournament after South African speedster Dale Steyn had starred in the first half of the competition for the Welsh county.

Tait will feature in the home quarter-final against Yorkshire at the SSE SWALEC in Cardiff on Thursday, August 11 (7pm) and will be available for Finals Day in Edgbaston on Saturday, August 20, if Glamorgan win their last eight encounter against the White Rose county.

“Shaun is staying with us until the conclusion of the competition,” said chief executive Hugh Morris.

“That was the basis on which we signed him. He is a top-class international fast bowler and we have proved this year you can get some early wickets through using our pace attack.

“Shaun has made his mark and we are looking forward to keeping him until the end of the competition.”

Glamorgan have set prices at £10 for adults and £5 for children for the Yorkshire game in order to try and attract a five-figure attendance of at least 10,000.

“We were really encouraged by the crowd we had for the last group game against Somerset as we got 7,500 into the ground,” said Morris.

“It was a fantastic atmosphere and a really good night with some excellent cricket.

“We wanted to reward our members and supporters and give them an opportunity to help fill the ground for the quarter-final.

“We have not had a home quarter-final since 2004 and it’s only the second last eight match in Cardiff we have had in the history of this competition.

“So it’s the biggest game Glamorgan have had in Wales for 12 years and it’s great to give everyone an opportunity to buy a ticket at reasonable prices to hopefully cheer us on for victory.

“People who come here for some of our bigger occasions, like internationals matches and our big domestic games, have a great time.”

But Yorkshire have been one of the top counties in recent seasons and are coached by Glamorgan’s former Australian paceman Jason Gillespie.

“Yorkshire is a tough but plum draw for us,” added Morris.

“They have been the team to beat in most competitions in recent years.

“They have produced more England cricketers in recent times and have a tradition and history of success over many summers.”

And Morris outlined the importance of trying to get through to a T20 Finals Day for only the second time in Glamorgan’s history since the domestic T20 tournament started in 2003.

“It’s a really big day for us,” added Morris.

“We have a very considerable obstacle in our way in Yorkshire and we are not thinking beyond that.

“But we are trying to develop and improve our performances.

"It was great to get to a Lord’s final in 2013 and this would be the next step for us.

“For the people of Wales who have got behind us in this competition, they would love the opportunity to go to Edgbaston on August 20 for Finals Day.”
